Etymology
Cognate with Manichaean Middle Persian 𐫛𐫀𐫡𐫃𐫏𐫗 (pʾrgyn /pārgēn/, “moat”), Parthian 𐫛𐫀𐫡𐫃𐫏𐫗 (pʾrgyn /pārgēn/), Sogdian 𐫛𐫡𐫐𐫀𐫏𐫗 (prkʾyn, “ditch”). Ultimately from Proto-Iranian *kan- (“to dig”), whence Sanskrit खनति (khanati, “to dig”). Compare the Iranian borrowings: Old Armenian պարկէն (parkēn, “moat”), Classical Syriac ܦܰܪܩܺܝܢܳܐ (prqynʾ /parqīnā/), ܦܪܓܝܢܐ (prgynʾ /*pargīnā/), ܦܪܓܝܘܢ (prgywn, “moat, ditch surrounding the town; drain, sewer, conduit”), Classical Syriac ܡܝܦܪܩܛ (mayparqeṭ, “Martyropolis”), Arabic فَارِقِين (fāriqīn, “water reservoir”), Arabic مَيَّافَارِقِين (mayyāfāriqīn, “Martyropolis”).
